From 3 to 5 August 2021, USAID Okard supported COPE to conduct a refresher training on clubfoot treatment to Lao national rehabilitation health professionals from the Centre of Medical Rehabilitation and four Provincial Rehabilitation Sub Centers (4 PRSCs) from Savannakhet, Xieng Khouang, Champasack, and Luangprabang Provinces.

With refreshed knowledge and skills, USAID Okard and COPE are confident that all babies born with clubfoot and treated by the professionals at CMR and PRSCs, will enjoy an active and happy life.

USAID Okard, funded by USAID and implemented by World Education Inc, improves access to quality healthcare and economic opportunities for persons with disabilities and supports the design and implementation of disabilities inclusive policies.
